Father of Sarfaraz Khan Sends Warning, Slams Fake Accounts Spreading 'Rumours'
Naushad Khan, who is the father of Indian cricketer Sarfaraz Khan, had to send a warning to fans of cricket after ‘fake accounts', impersonating him, cropped up on social media, asking people for money on the pretext of selection as IPL net bowlers, cricket academies, and state teams. In a video, Naushad highlighted how a number of fake social media accounts have surfaced on different platforms, trying to lure aspiring cricketers into spending money for selection in different tournaments. Sarfaraz's father urged budding cricketers to believe in their talent and hard work over such people running scams.
Naushad said, “In my name, a lot of people have made fake accounts on Facebook and Instagram. On the pretext of getting entry into the IPL as net bowlers or for state or academy selection, those accounts are asking kids for money.
While concluding his statement, he said, “I request that you not believe them and trust your own hard work. I am not associated with any IPL team, and neither am I coaching anywhere. Please don’t believe them. Thank you so much!”
